Which bike, down to aesthetics

Mods - if possible - poll? 'Which bike looks cooler?' 'Top Bike', 'Bottom Bike'

Hi, about to get my first big bike. Woohoo!

I have done LOTS of research and after weeks of reading have got my first 'big bike' down to two contenders. Believe it or not, my final decision is NOW purely aesthetic. You do NOT need to know ANYTHING about bikes to answer my question. Which of the below two looks cooler/more awesome in your opinion? I'm not talking about mpg, handling, insurance, anything else as I know it all already - just looks now (and I know they look similarish!)!

The one with the most votes will result in a purchase from myself (piccies will follow, buying end of July). Which do I prefer? Well I love them exactly equally So, some help with a tough decision here please lads .. which would you choose?

The decision is yours ..

Britboy, what happened with the out come of your accident?

Honda for me but tough choice.

Accident - ended up going knock-for-knock. Got cheque for £1625 for the bike. Which was it's second hand price. Got 50% of second hand price for my helmet and clothes damage (off his insurance company, my half wasn't insured if that makes sense). Got 50% of my excess paid by his insurance company.

Went to cancel rest of years insurance to get that money back but small print = they cancel it immediately and keep the whole year's money

Decided I want a bigger bike - booked into DAS - and choosing between the two on the OP!

Altogether, even though I was fully-comp there is NO WAY I could replace what I lost when I had the crash with the insurance money .. which leaves a slightly sick feeling in my stomach At least I wasn't just third party ..
